Verse 1:
G[B]et up in the morning, check out the weather
If it looks like sun I get my things together
Throw some c[E]utoffs on, grab my t[F#]ank top and tennies now
And h[B]ead for the beach
Well, I'm d[(B)]rivin' down the highway losin' all my patience
Punchin' all the buttons tryin' to find a station
With a sc[E]reamin' jock servin' [F#]up my daily ration of
Chorus:
(Cr[B]uisin' music, [E/B]sure good music)

Verse 2:
Well I'm flyin' down the freeway, floatin' like a feather
Got my windows rolled down in the hot summer weather
With my radio up loud, nothin' makes me feel better
Than some good rock 'n' roll (good, good good rock 'n' roll)
Those suntanned girls are lookin' out of sight
And to a beach-drenched jam we'd never get uptight
'Cause when the sun goes down we'll be dancin' through the night
and singin'
[repeat chorus]
